No more Rivera for Margarito, he is now going to fight Clottey.

good, Cosme Rivera was indefensible as a choice and I like Margarito but it was indefensible. Not that Clottey is some world beater but he's solid enough.
Im not sure how good Clottey is Ive only seen his latest fight and I wasn't at all impressed... But we'll see. Hey at least Tony's staying active righht... Oh yeah... His last fight was a 10 second KO of a tomato can 10 months ago. I WONDER WHY NOONE IS CALLING HIM OUT![]()
Clottey's a rock. I wouldn't be surprised to see an upset. Clottey was beating Baldomir up until getting dq'd. Tough as nails. Good solid fight for Margarito.
The Best There Is, The Best There Was, The Best There Ever Will Be
The most feared man thing is going overboard, he may never get a Floyd fight, its looking that way more now with Floyd going to 154, but he can get fights, Williams would fight him, I expect Quintana would too, and Baldomir. People will fight him, they just need to start making the fights and stop trying to just get a Floyd fight.Originally Posted by p4pking

Yea I know he can, but he's not exactly helping his chances of getting the fights he want's by being inactive.. Cintron was his last(and only) real opponent, imo... I also don't know what Williams or Quintana would do anything much for him, it's not exactly the money he want's obviously.. Joshua Clottey is just as good an opponent as any of the 3 you mentioned, as far as Im concerned... Im talking if he want's the big names, the money, he needs to be active, and either on TV or an undercard bout would be perfect.. I mean to be honest Im surprised he didn't get a big fight after his win over Cintron, since many people saw that KO and there was a huge buzz around him.. But that's exactly the point is he needs ot mantain it to warrant a big fight, not beat nobody's on these stupid PPV cards like his latest fight. Will this match against Clottey be televised?? Hope so.Originally Posted by OumaFan
Clottey is a beast for 147 and the only reason he did not look so impressive in his last fight was because he was fighting another beast.
I don't know about that. They both looked very unimpressive. Quintana would be a much better fight. As would Collazo.Originally Posted by maracho
True bro Quintana is a diamond in the rough, been following him for a long time now. But this Clottey is gonna be tough to beat. Margarito better bring his A game!Originally Posted by shza

Both looked damn good and damn tough to me. Better than Quintanna IMO. Clottey will be a hard fight for Margarito, though I believe he will win it. Don't see him KO'n Clottey. Josh is a rock hard fighter all around.Originally Posted by shza
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
Unimpressed with those extremly high punch stats-did you actually see the fight? Your probably just trying to diminish tony's next apponent because he exposed your PBF.Originally Posted by shza
I was impressed with both fighters and feel that all these new coloumbian fighters will get better with U.S. training. Clottey on the other hand took this fight on extremly short notice after Cintron dropped out--he just ran out of steam is all.
To take your own arguments Quintana has fought no one except Julio who has fought no one. Clottey, however has beaten your Baldomir quite severely and Margarito has challenged Quintana but Quintana backed down.
No i don't think so. IMO this is a soft opponent for a man who thinks hes good enough to beat floyd. If floyd picked clottey everyone would have something to say. And i think clottey can win so what does that really say about tony?Originally Posted by maracho
Step up so I can put you down
I don't thik you have seen Clottey fight,becuase you call him soft and Clottey is anything but. If Floyd picked Clottey,he would be fighting his FIRST natural WW at 147 and he's supposedly P4P number 1 so OBVIOUSLY the standards for judging him are going to be higher than those for Tony.What does it say about PBF when people say he will lose to feather fisted Spinks? Nothing....everyone has an opinion.... And if you think Clottey can win,that shows he is tough and can beat one of the strongest WW around.Originally Posted by MRMANICK
Not really cause I think collazo and Quintana can beat tony too. The fact is alot of people rate tony on what they THINK he can do. I rate him on what i have seen him do. I hope he has a great chin cause with his style i can see a few fighters just straight up outbox him.Originally Posted by The Game
As far as clottey goes i have seen him fight many times and I think he and tony are on the same level but the thing is clottey is a just another contender and tony is a supposed champion. Considering the experience gap clottey and tony shouldn't be on the same level.
Step up so I can put you down
